Through fault of your own?

Nope. I blame her.

May I inquire as to the offense she has committed against you, sir?

Her job decided to bug us.

Hooker call in sick?

Not a hooker. Her job called. I was thisclose to getting laid, too.

Have you been trying to get into the nurses' scrubs again? I told you, Evil Nurse Brenda wants Wilson.

No, blondie. She's a copper.

My night, however, was quite interesting.

Really?

You look nothing like your driver's license photo, Dr. Wilson. Shockingly you look like Dr. Gregory House.

It was a bad picture.

Apparently, you also wrote down the wrong height and eye color.

Whoops?

So how'd you get House? Call me curious.

You gave me a list of charges, I knew what you looked like, not hard to type all that information in and come up with a list of names. Then it was just a matter of checking license photos to find you.

I do this for a living, it really isn't hard.

I'm pretty proud of my charges, what can I say?

Good to see my tax dollars are well spent.

Criminals usually brag. So, are you going to tell me why you gave me someone else's name?

I do what I can.

I like to see how long I can keep people's interest. Generally they realize I am not, in fact, James Wilson and are all the more intrigued about who I am.

Well, you've certainly caught my attention, doc.

Glad to hear it.

So, Dr. House, are you going to tell me more about you or do I have to resort to Google?

Depends. What do you want to know?

The cancer specialty, real or a lie?

Lie. Wilson is the oncologist. Infectious disease and nephrology are my specialties.

Figured as much. Infectious disease I get, but what the hell is nephrology?

Like I'd lie about being a guy without knowing something about him?

Nephrology. Kidneys. They're a pretty darn important organs.

You could have made him up. Criminals will do that. It's not very smart. Your idea is actually the better way to lie.

Well, that's what doctors keep telling me.

Yeah, but they're idiots.

5/5 doctors agree. *sage nod*

Depends on the criminal. Most of them are idiots.

Shocking really.

I'm not a criminal, though. I'm a doctor.

Isn't it just?

I'm going to guess that means you consider yourself pretty smart.

It's my bragging right.

I wouldn't call lying to a cop smart.

I wasn't lying to a cop, I was fibbing to a woman.

Semantics, cute, but wrong.

There was no malicious intent. I was just testing how curious you were.

I'll make it simple for you. I'm a cop, I'm always curious.

Do you run background checks on your dry cleaners?

Nope, but you made the mistake of telling me you'd been arrested.

It wasn't a mistake, it was a tactic.

*one eyebrow goes up* So, you've got a battle plan, doc?

That doesn't sound good.
